Comments about Pantone Pantone Huey, LCD and CRT Monitor Calibrating and Profiling Colorimeter with Software:
I tried many different printer profiles trying to obtain the correct colors for my photos.My Apple is an absolutely great computer but my photos kept turning out too dark and the hues were slightly off.I was quite frankly very dubious about the Pantone Huey doing any good but thought I would give it a try any way.It was a snap to set up and install and I couldn't believe it when I printed the first photo and it came out perfect.Can't say enough good things about this product.

Comments about Pantone Pantone Huey, LCD and CRT Monitor Calibrating and Profiling Colorimeter with Software:
If you do photo editing, this device will enable you to finally get prints to match your monitor. An uncalibrated monitor makes it nearly impossible to get your prints right, and even more so if you use an online service. I had previously downloaded a standard test print from a popular printing service. In the past my colors were close but still off a bit. Since getting the Huey, my first print was a perfect match! No unwanted tints, black and white just right. Now I can edit away and my prints match every time! Now I don't waste costly ink and paper trying to get it right. The Huey has saved the day! I wish I had bought it a year earlier. I just hope the device proves to hold up without breaking down any time soon. Don't waste time . . . just get it!

Comments about Pantone Pantone Huey, LCD and CRT Monitor Calibrating and Profiling Colorimeter with Software:
For the first time, my photos come back from the lab with the same colors I saw on my monitor. The Huey is very easy to set-up and use and the price is just right.

Comments about Pantone Pantone Huey, LCD and CRT Monitor Calibrating and Profiling Colorimeter with Software:
The unit set up easily. I did not notice a great difference in my monitor (the screen was a bit lighter) but my printer (Epson Photo 1200) now produces photo prints that match the monitors color. In the past I always had to do some color correction prior to printing.

Comments about Pantone Pantone Huey, LCD and CRT Monitor Calibrating and Profiling Colorimeter with Software:
Worked great for a few months and then died. Pantone sent me a replacement and it died after 3 weeks. I have asked for my money back....no response yet from Pantone.

from La Crosse WI on 5/9/2007
Comments about Pantone Pantone Huey, LCD and CRT Monitor Calibrating and Profiling Colorimeter with Software:
There was a very definate improvement in my monitor after using the huey. I turned off the ambient sensor because the changes were more annoying than useful. The huey did what I wanted it too at a great price. Both [...] and Pantone impressed me with their commitment to the customer.

Comments about Pantone Pantone Huey, LCD and CRT Monitor Calibrating and Profiling Colorimeter with Software:
Pros:
simple,fast but effective.
Cons:
Not permanent profile, the calibration is working while the program is running in the background. if you close it in the tray, calibration goes with it.

Comments about Pantone Pantone Huey, LCD and CRT Monitor Calibrating and Profiling Colorimeter with Software:
I was looking for a quick, easy and cheap way to make sure that my prints matched what was on my monitor. With canvas at $[...] per sheet and at least that in Pigments the Huey was a wise investment.It took about 10 minutes to run through the setup, and now is ever vigilent.

Very simple to install and use. The calibrator is small and easy to take with you so you always have a properly calibrated monitor, adjusted to whatever light you are in.

Comments about Pantone Pantone Huey, LCD and CRT Monitor Calibrating and Profiling Colorimeter with Software:
Price is dead on. I consider myself an amature photogrpaher. After installation the Huey screen was much, much brighter. However, all of my photos were washed out with "too" much light. Most photos looked better without the Huey correction. I currently use a Flatron 19" LG LCD monitor

I am an amature and my problems printing were not solved. It appears to do what is promised. Not a discernable change.

from Lenoir, NC on 2/5/2007
Comments about Pantone Pantone Huey, LCD and CRT Monitor Calibrating and Profiling Colorimeter with Software:
The Huey works as advertised. I would recommend it to someone who needed calibration, but wasn't sure why or what it was. I find I want more information and profiling, rather than the absolute ease the Huey offers. It did educate me in calibration, but I soon realized I had outgrown it.

Comments about Pantone Pantone Huey, LCD and CRT Monitor Calibrating and Profiling Colorimeter with Software:
Easy and quick to establish correct color on any computer monitor. Does not require a lot of color theory. Can be set to correct as ambient light changes.

Comments about Pantone Pantone Huey, LCD and CRT Monitor Calibrating and Profiling Colorimeter with Software:
I should have tried this a while ago, it made a big difference in my monitor. I have dual 19" LCD displays. This package only calibrated one of them, which is ok because I use one for the photos and the other for menus, and I don't care what color the menus are. But the menus were the first thing I noticed. I dragged one over to the calibrated monitor and the difference was huge ... oh, the gray in the menu is supposed to look like *that*? I stretched a couple of images across the monitors, same difference, big improvement. I will have to redo my printer calibration, but it's worth it.
